So, finally, after many months of breathless anticipation one of my fantasies came true. I finally managed to meet my girlfriends-in person no less-for coffee. All three of us had been double-jabbed, the requisite waiting period for immunity to kick in was over and we had been adhering to social distancing norms like our lives depend on it. So as the case load in Delhi fell to under 200 daily cases and the positivity rate went below one percent, we decided that it was time we threw caution and our masks-to the wind and finally met up for a cup of coffee.

That said, we were still wary enough not to risk congregating in a place full of unmasked strangers. So, we opted to meet at the home of one of us, sitting in an airy, well-ventilated room, which looked out on a verdant lawn, exchanging elbow bumps rather than hugs as a concession to virus. In the event, it was too hot a morning for coffee, so all three of us chose to have nimbu pani instead, loaded with lots of ice and a divine hint of kala namak (salt).

As we quaffed our drinks and exchanged gossip, often talking over one another in our excitement to finally be together, we finally feel that life was returning to normal-or, at least to be a semblance of normalcy. Don't get me wrong. We had been zooming one another regularly all through the pandemic so it wasn't as if we had lost touch.
